You don’t need to be an accountant to know when your business finances aren’t under control - but it’s not always as simple to pinpoint where the problem lies. Our Business Financial Health Check is a quick and easy way to identify the financial strengths of your business, and the elements which need greater attention.
This is based on our “5 Pillars of Good Business Finances” structured approach to help you identify your organisation’s financial strengths and weaknesses. It’s just 10 questions - so it’s fast. And free. It won’t cost you anything to try out our Business Financial Health Check Tool and to provide you with useful insights about the performance of your business.
Business Financial Health Check for Your Business
You probably didn’t start your business because you had a passion for filling in spreadsheets or recording your bookkeeping transactions (unless of course you are accountant or bookkeeper!). It’s likely that your talents lie in what your business sells, produces or delivers. Like most businesses that means there could be gaps or weaknesses in your finances. You may not even realise it just yet, but perhaps you don’t feel entirely confident that your business finances are as robust as they could be? If this sounds familiar, our Health Check is what you need. Just 10 questions long, it covers the full breadth of your business to quickly identify if there are any shortfalls or ways to shore up your finances. Completing the Business Financial Health Check will give you a quick indicator of the overall strengths of your business – provided you answer honestly!
